About this award

The U.S. Air Force Academy awarded a $15.3K firm-fixed-price purchase order to Heating and Plumbing Engineers, Inc., a small business, to repair critical high-pressure air storage tanks in the Aeronautics Department's Aero Lab. The repair work addresses fourteen identified leaks across six large pressurized tanks (approximately 68 feet long and 5 feet in diameter, operating at pressures up to 600 psi) that supply compressed air to the Trisonic Wind Tunnel, jet engine test cells, and other Academy projects requiring pressurized air. The contractor must provide all necessary materials, certified personnel, and equipment to complete the repairs within 30 days of contract award, with work performed at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, under strict safety protocols including lockout/tagout procedures during standard operating hours.

This contract was awarded on a small business set-aside basis under NAICS code 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) following a competitive solicitation posted in August 2025. The repair work is critical to maintaining Academy aeronautical research capabilities, as failure of the high-pressure tanks could result in severe property damage or injury. The contract requires compliance with Service Contract Act wage determinations with minimum wages of $17.75 per hour, and the work must be completed by February 24, 2026.
